WHAT IS AN ANGLE?
An angle is formed when two straight lines or
rays meet in a common endpoint. The
common point of contact is called the vertex
of an angle.
SYMBOL OF AN ANGLE
PARTS OF AN ANGLE
Vertex – a vertex is a corner of an angle, a
point where two lines/ sides meet.
Arms – the two sides of the angle, joined at
a common endpoint.
Initial side – also known as the reference
line, a straight line from where an angle is
drawn. ∟OB.
Terminal side – the side up to which the
angle measurement is done. ∟OA
PARTS OF AN ANGLE
TYPES OF ANGLES
An acute angle – measures less than 90º at
the vertex.
An obtuse angle – is between 90 ﹾand 180º.
Obtuse angles are angles that are more than 90º but less
than 180º.
A right angle – is measured exactly at 90º.
A straight angle – is an angle that measures exactly
180º.
A reflex angle – are angles that measures between 180º -
360º.
An angle that makes a full circle or rotation is called a
360º.
TYPES OF ANGLES
TYPES OF ANGLES (CON ’T)
Interior and exterior angles:
Interior angles – interior angles are the
angles formed within or inside a shape.
Example:
Here, ∟ABC, ∟BCA and ∟ACD is an exterior
angles.
Exterior angles – are the angles formed
outside a shape, between any side of a
shape and an extended adjacent side. Here ,
∟ACD is an exterior angle.

Complementary and Supplementary
angles:
Complementary angles: are angles that add
up to 90º (a right angle) are called
complementary angles.
Here, ∟BXC and ∟ CXD are complimentary
angles.
COMPLEMENTARY ANGLE
TYPES OF ANGLES (CON’T)
Supplementary Angles – angles that add
up to 180º ( a straight angle0 are called
supplementary angles.
Here, ∟ AXD and ∟ CXD are supplementary
angles.

Transversal on parallel lines
WHAT ARE PARALLEL LINES
Parallel lines can be defined as two straight
lines facing each other that never meets no
matter how long you extend them.
PARALLEL LINES AND TRANSVERSAL
• A transversal line is a line that intersects two
straight lines at distinct points; or passes
through two lines in the same plane at two
distinct points.
TRANSVERSAL ON NON – PARALLEL
LINES
TRANSVERSAL ANGLES
When a transversal cuts two parallel lines,
several angles are formed by these two
intersections. Those are called transversal
angles. Those types of angles on a
transversal are given below.
